in this case, is the hacker too smart or the owner of the account and Twitter too stupid

A combination of both.

A calculated attack, assisted by the gullibility and/or carelessness of the entities In question.

This was calculated it's not a government entity 120k isn't shit so china wouldn't even hack into these accounts but for a person 120k in BTC is alot of money really impressive even if it's stupidness might've been on purpose considering they hacked into multiple peoples accounts it was a matter of time before twitter released this so they had to of opt-out for something quick like a BTC scam.

They could have done anything. They had attention of every single man on Earth. But they just stole money. How miserable.

This is a fraud on the level of God. Unbelievable!
